Record digital out from my LUNATEC V-3?

[alanspcs]

I'm confused, needless to say, but I can not find a definitive answer elsewhere. Help?

I appreciate that I can't record from the digital out of a CD player, for example, and then upload the files into my MAC (10.2.4) -- BUT, is it not possible to feed the digital out of a mic-pre into the new Sony HiMD recorders? for eventual upload?

TIA, alan

I would think that you would be able to record via the TOSlink... The HiMD will convert the signal down to 44.1 though.

If you need to upload to MAC, there are two new HiMD recorders available with this ability. The MZ-M10 & MZ-M100.

Is there any way on the preamp to control the TOSlink settings?

EDIT: I'm not sure if you would be able to upload the Optical recordings or not with those new recorders to your MAC. I know SonicStage gives you hell when you try to convert optical recordings that you've uploaded to WAV, but there are ways around that at least.

Sorry to post again, but I was reading the manual for your preamp, and it looks like you may have to make some adjustments to set the optical out to S/PDIF ... I don't think HiMD recorders understand AES3.

Howdy, I would have to have the Toslink modification, provided by the LUNATEC's manufacturer, (or use a small converter) to feed the MZ-M100 or M10, but the thing I'm concerned about is -- if ANY recording from a digital source (such as a quality AD or mic-pre) is treated to the same limitations imposed on previously recorded, copy protected, materials, CD's etc?

Thanks
